Still in Their Ashes Live the

San Francisco Chronicle.

Il don't like it, he said. That's the
tenth old lady who has fallen in love
with me.
Il think that's complimentary to you. ;
is it? o, yes. That's all right. l
60 to a party, and the old lady takes
me into corner, and begins to talk to
me, and she has a pretty daughter, and
there's an ocean of pretty girls, and |
see somebody want to dance with, and
the old lady says: you don't want to
dance. Sit here and talk to me-
well, why don't you get out and
dancer
Il can't. A nice old lady, who fiat
tiers you by asking your opinion of her
daughters beaus and tickles your vanity
with all sorts of pretty little toucheS-I
tell you, my boy, you may talk as you
like about young women and widows,
and spinsters and flirts, but there isn't
any flirt in creation so dangerous as a
woman at IS, whose hair just sprinkled
with silver. They have ways about them.
Confound it all, 1 remember getting
spooney on an old woman of 90, who
was too old to dream of Disgusting her
age.
'You laugh! All right. Some day
you'll catch it, perhaps. But you don't
seem to be lovable. If they'd only get
mad and let you alone. But no; they
simply take snub quietly and wait the
next chance
Il don't think that's everybody's ex-
perience.'
MAY be not. That makes it all the
worse. You see, an old lady is privi,
legged to talk out even about love, and
when she talks of love you think she
means as a son or something like that.
Then you find out that it's just the same
kind of love as anybody else's and you've
kind of encouraged it and accepted it,
especially if she has money. Even
money is no good. l knew an old
widow of IS who was passionately at
tached to me, and when she died she
left all her money to congregation.
tell you I'm not going to stand in any
more. The next old lady who falls i
love with me will get left and don't 20,

why She Hated Him Real Bad

Il used to think that Gus Simpson
was real nice young man, but l just
hate him now, said one young lady to
another.
'Why, what has he done2'
'He's treated me shametully. That's
what
I'm what way2'
'Why, the other evening at the party
l said to him, Let's eat a philopene and
if you say yes or mo- to any of my
questions I'll owe you box of candy,
and if l say yes or mo- you'll give me
box.''
Then whata'
'After the party he took me home and
all the way there he talked just as sweet
as could be about love in cottage and
men should not live alone and all that.
And when he got to the front gate he
said, Fannie, l have waited for this op-
portunity long time, will you marry
me7' 1 whispered yes in low voice
-and-and-' Here her sobs choked
her.
'And what did he do then7' inquired
her listener, eagerly.
'He--just--hollered 'philopenel' with
all his might. That's what he did, and
she wept afresh and would not be COM
forted.

Cheap Labor on the Panama Canal.

A traveller returned from Panama tc
New York reports there is great stag
nation of business on the Isthmus,
owing to the fact that work on the
canal has almost stopped. The ravages
Of smallpox in Jamaica, where most Of
the men come from, has cut off the
supply from that source. The few
laborers at work are imported from
China or direct from Africa. A ship.
load Of $50 tattooed negroes was landed
recently from Liberia, under a years
contract to work on the canal for board
and lodging and nominal wages. The
contractors agree to pay what is stipu-
lated at the end Of the year, and in this
way manage to secure their laborers for
their board and lodging. Few of the
great shiploads constantly being landed
ever survive the deadly disease of the
swamps and jungles. Contractors i'm
port an average Of 100 Chinese laborers
each month, with the same agreement
as to wages. The climate kills them
off by hundreds, and fresh importations
are made to keep the work along.
Very little attention is paid to the
rights Of American residents except
when man of war is cruising near the
Isthmus.

THE JUBILEE MEETING.

In point Of numbers and influence,
the meeting at the British Club last
night was very gratifying 10 British
patriotism and loyalty Although not
much Of a practical nature was done,
yet a fair start was made toward a
fitting celebration Of Queen Victories
jubilee anniversary Of her accession.
II would probably have been better If
sufficient progress had been made to
allow actual preparations for the cele-
bration to proceed forthwith. With
only month and half to spare, the
next ten days or 50 arc to bear no
more fruit than the selection Of com
mittee to begin arranging for the de-
tails. However, it is to be hoped that
such a committee will be reported up
at the adj burned meeting as will be
competent to make up for the loss Of
time by activity and influence. II the
committee could only be named and
notified within the first FIVE days, they
might during the balance OF the interim
do a great deal in ascertaining the views
of British residents, and formulating
those into definite propositions to be
submitted to the adjourned meeting.

The Republican Leader.

A Cincinnati despatch Of April 72nd
is as follows: On being interviewed by
an Associated Press reporter to-day
Richard Smith denied the truth OF the
report published in Eastern papers that
he had received letter from White
law Reid in which the latter said that
the Tribune had arrived at the conclu-
: sion to abandon Blaine for the nomin-
alton for the Presidency and support
John Sherman. Smith said that he
received no such letter, but admitted
that in conversation with Reid the
latter said that he would support Sher-
man with the greatest pleasure, if,
when the time came, he thought him
the best nominee Smith said further,
however, that when he started to leave
Reds Office the editor Of the IrbHne
said: "Hold on, now, want to say
one thing more. i want to tell you
further, that if we united fully with you
and with all your friends in an effort to
nominate any Of these men you named
and convention should be held with

all the power we could bring to bear,

Goethe was in company with .
mother and her daughter, when the
latter being approved for something,
burst into tears. He said:
"How beautiful your reproach has
made your daughter! That crimson
hue and those silvery tears become
her so much better than any ornament
of gold or pearls. These may be hung
on the neck of any woman, but those
are never seen disconnected with moral
purity. A full-blown rose, besprinkled
with the purest dew, is not so beautiful
as this child blushing beneath her pa
rents displeasure and shedding tears of
sorrow for her fault. A blush is the
sign which nature hangs out to show
where charity and honor dwell"
